Introduction

1.1. Introduction

TG660 is a VHF-transceiver. Depe nding on the variant, the TG660 is c apable of deliver ing 6 W, 10 W
or 50 W power (RF-carrier) to an external antenna.

TG660 features:

• Voltage control: TG660 po wer supp l y logic is oper ati n g with AC-power by default. After
AC-power failed, the logic automatically switches over to external DC-power. The moment
AC-power becomes available the logic returns back to AC-power source.

• Battery (option for 6 W and 10 W variants): An optional internal 12 VDC rechargeable
battery inside the TG660 provide power to continue operation with reduced RF power 6 W
over a certain time if AC and external DC supply voltage fail at the same time.

• Radio over IP (option): This option allows the TG660 to be connected to a Local Area
Network and the radio communication is performed over IP. In addition this option
provides remote monitoring and control capabilities via a PC and a web browser

• TG660 has a user-fr iendly HMI; all main components are on the front panel.

o 2-line 16 character liquid-crystal display (LCD)

The selected frequency and operating status of the equipment, displayed on the
LCD, inform about the current operating mode.

o Several cont rol elements (rotating knob and buttons),

enables the user to change operating modes or operating frequency. Standby
switch selected to “Standby” partially shuts down the TG660 internal power supply.
Some power supply circuits continue listening to the “Standby Switch” to repower
the unit at any time.

• The “ON/OFF” switch, located on the rear panel, disconnects from AC supply completely.

• TG660 VHF transceiver is protected against jammed transmit button or short circuit on the

PTT line.

• TG660 VHF transceiver is protected against antenna mismatch.

For further descript

1.2. Purpose of Equipment

PRELIMINARY

• TG660 is a fixed station for voice communications in the VHF frequency range of

118.000...136.990 MHz with 25 kHz / 8.33 kHz channel spacing.

• TG660 is useable on airports with different scale as a main transceiver, or as a standby
unit, as well as for special tasks within the scope of air traffic control.

• Designed for mounting in 19" rack systems, or in ATC desks.

• Operating with AC supply voltage from 100...230 V or with 24 VDC.

Scope of Functionality

1.4. Scope of Functionality

1.4.1. Microphone Inputs

Several microphone inputs are available for:

• Standard microphone unbalanced, DC coupled and providing power supply for the mike.

• Dynamic mike input balanced.

• Symmetrical balanced input.

These microphone in puts connect to a dynamic volum e compressor inside of the remote contro lled
transceiver, which k eeps the m odulati on voltage c ons tant ≥ 80% over a wide m ike signa l input vo ltage
range.

1.4.2. Audio Outputs

TG660 has different outputs:

• Headphone output

• Speaker output

• Line out

• Voice recorder

1.4.3. Side Tone Output

In transmit mode, the side tone signal is routed to the line and phone output.

1.4.4. HMI

The TG660 HMI pro vides a LC Displa y, a keypad, various function switches and the volume control
and also operation with Web Browser via IP ( see "Radio over IP "RoIP", pag e 15).

1.4.5. Loudspeaker

The loudspeaker, located behind the front panel, switch off automatically during TX. This avoids
acoustic coupling between loudspeaker and the microphone, which can cause acoustical feedback.

1.4.6. Rear Panel

TG660 rear panel layout:

• Terminal for ground connection.

• AC power connector with integrated ON/OFF switch and safety fuse.

• Fuse 1 (DC extern input

• Fuse 2 (internal battery if installed) or Power Amplifier for TG660-25 or TG660-50.

• DC extern socket (STAKEI 2 connector).

• LAN socket (RJ45).

• Remote connector (D-Sub9pin).

• Record / DF connector (D-Sub15pin).

• LINE / AUX connector (D-Sub25pin).

• Antenna connection (N-Type).

• TG660-50 (Reflectometer)

).

1.4.7. Self-Test

After power "ON" a s ystem self-test is perform ed. Detected errors show up on the dis play otherwise
the unit changes into the last used operation mode.

1.4.8. Options

Following options are available with all TG660 variants and all combinations.

1.4.8.1. Internal Battery

An optional internal 12 VDC battery (recharge able) inside the TG660 (onl y 6 W and 10 W variants)
provide power supply to contin ue operation over a certain t ime if AC and external DC supply voltage
fail at the same time.

Please note the TG660 functionality will be limited during operation in battery mode :

• Reduced RF power 6 W.

• Limited remote operation available.

1.4.8.2. Radio over IP "RoIP"

The RoIP (Radio over IP) opti on provides the p ossibility to con nect the desk top control heads via th e
local area network (LAN) to the r adios . Thus com m on infras tructur e can b e use d and a lm ost unlim ited
distances can be bridged . As audio data an d contro l data are trans form ed to TCP/IP over Ethernet no
degradation of voice quality is present. Furthermore, connections via the Internet can be used.

Beside the voice communication also control signals are transferred via the LAN and thus provide
Remote Control & Monitoring functionality to the user. The configuration of the TG660 may be
changed via a web interface.
